If you do not have a PDF Reader installed, you must install a PDF reader to open and view PDF files.
Are two of the most popular to install Acrobat Reader or Foxit Reader - so you will be able to view the PDF files.
Both are free:

If you do not have a PDF Reader installed:
Default program to open files of Type with the value
1 right-click the PDF in Windows Explorer, select "open with...". »
2. click on the program that you want (if not in the menu, you will need to search for it).
3. make sure the "always use the selected program" is checked on the bottom of the window.
4. click on OK.
This type of file should always be opened in this program.
Or, you can follow the guides on the page linked below.

When you try to create a PDF file from a police site is not correctly convert into a readable format
Hello
As the title says when I find something on a website I want to create a PDF with, the font that is readable on the site converts once the PDF file is created in an unknown format, which is not readable in any language. I use Adobe Acrobat XI Pro and novice quite using Acrobat, so any info would be a great help. Try and search around the forum for the question but I don't really know what to type I'm not familiar with what the text converts to.
Print to PDF from a site that has CSS style fonts, you should choose the option "depend on font system.." in the Adobe PDF printer properties.

When I try to open a PDF file with adobe Acrobat reader, windows media center automatically opens. How to prevent this? I just want to open the PDF file with Acrobat reader.
The solution I think. If you right-click on one of the files and select open the file locations it now combined the file with adobe reader.
Yes - you simply need to change the associated file (and path) back to Adobe Reader. (If that's your choice PDF reader.)
If you did this:
Press the Windows Logo and R key at the same time to bring up the dialog box RUN.
Once you have the dialog box up, type in the following command and press OK...cmd /k ftype AcroExch.Document
That he return with? Should be something like:
AcroExch.Document = "C:\Program files (x 86) \Adobe\Reader 10.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe" '%1'

Hi michaelj85983522,
Since when are you facing this problem?
I checked your account details and I see that you have a valid license of Acrobat, you sure you edit file in Acrobat and not in the reader?
I recommend you to contact the customer about this issue: contact customer service

When you try to download a PDF file to an interactive site, I get the announcement: "the attached PDF file is referring to a non-embedded font Tahoma. Please delete, incorporate the police and set again. »
I couldn't get rid of the Tahoma police in the WORD file.
How to integrate it, or in fact any other police?
It should be an option to make the PDF. Which version of Acrobat you are using, and exactly the method and parameters do you use to make the PDF?

The caption explains my problem, that started after the recent update of Windows 10. Even if the reader asks if I want to make the default value, and even if I click on Yes and then agree that drive to make changes to my computer (probably the registry), the next time I try to open a .pdf file comes from the browser. In addition, when I open the drive I can't find a way to open a file in it, which leaves me stuck with the browser rather than drive for all the .pdf files. What can I do?
Hi robertb98559829,
If in the case where it does not drive as default value when the application of the parameters of the application, then we need to change the default OS property values.
Please, try the following:
Close the player or any other application using the PDF
Go to control panel > default programs > associate a type of file or Protocol with a program
Since scrolling list file Type down to the type of PDF file.
Click on it to select it.
Click the Change program button at the top right
On the next dialog box, select Adobe Acrobat Reader and click OK
Then close
Now, try to open a PDF by double clicking on it.
I would like to know if it works.

Why does firefox open a non-stop tab string when I try to open a PDF file?
I don't know if it's a coincidence, but right after that I installed the latest version of Adobe flash player, firefox now opens a string with no end of new tabs, whenever I try to open a PDF file. I have to close the window and start over.
Help?
the machine is a HP Elitebook 8540w. Windows 7 64-bit.
You have configured Firefox to use the Adobe Acrobat plugin? It seems that he may be missing or disabled, because it does not appear in your "more details of the system" (next to your message). You can see the page modules. Either:
- CTRL + SHIFT + a
- "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons
In the left column, click on Plugins. Then on the right, look for Adobe Acrobat. It may be down on a gray background.
If you don't have it: Make sure that this isn't your favorite here player:
"3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Options > Applications
You can type or paste pdf in the search box at the top of the list after loading to filter.
If you have it, but it cannot be activated using 'Always enable' or "Ask to activate": You may need to update. I recommend using the help inside your product Adobe (Reader or Acrobat) menu to check the updates.
Any progress?

When I try to view a PDF file, at the start, I get a transparent box and as soon as I expanded it, it turns into a solid black rectangle. I wonder if there are any add-on which will fix this problem. If I use IE, I have no problem.
You have two PDF plugins installed for Firefox.
- Nitro PDF plugin for Firefox and Netscape
- Adobe PDF plugin for Firefox and Netscape '9.4.5.
Try disabling one that is not used by Firefox and make sure that download Action matches the plugin that you want to use Firefox.
