Problem solving
If you are an experienced computer user, problems running it can be easily determined. This section can help you on the cause of these problems. Choose online support from the help menu.
1. Help and how-to windows are not available when you open them from a web browser. To access the help button or how-to window from a task button, launch it from outside of the web browser’s troubleshooting information, or choose online support from the Adobe Reader help menu.
2. The help and instruction windows are not available when you open them from a web browser. To access the help button or the button on how to access the window from the task, start Adobe Reader outside of a web browser.
3. Windows detection and repair functions repair or replace damaged or missing installation components.
4. You can drag the how window anywhere on the screen. If you move the window from a docked position, it becomes a floating window and can only be resized by dragging the lower right corner. To redock a floating instruction window, control-click below the title bar and choose docked left or docked right. For more information, see the Adobe Reader help.
5. The Enter key and the space bar work differently in the Accessibility Setup Wizard on Windows and Mac OS. In Windows, both the Enter key and the space bar close the wizard. On Mac OS, the Enter key advances the wizard to the next page and the space bar closes the wizard.
6. Windows XP and 2000 include Microsoft Magnifier, an accessibility tool that was the interface. When launched, this tool enables accessibility in Adobe Reader until you quit. Every time you open a PDF document, the following message appears, “Please wait while the document is being prepared for reading.” To reduce the time it takes to prepare a PDF document for reading, set the page document preference to only read the currently visible pages in the reading preferences. Setting the reading order preferences in the reading order in the raw print stream also speeds up this process, but can interfere with the functionality magnifier.
7. To improve the startup time and performance of Adobe Reader, defragment your hard drive using disk utility before installing. You can use the disc included with your operating system or a utility. Hard drives become fragmented with normal use (for example, installing and uninstalling applications, adding and removing files). Over time, the computer cannot locate contiguous blocks of free space and saves files piecemeal on the hard drive, increasing the time it takes to open these files. The hard drive pulls files back together and improves performance.
8. If you scan a PDF into Notepad with a scanner, the resulting data may contain null bytes or illegal characters (characters that cannot be typed on the keyboard). This data can run shortcuts on the desktop that cause windows to open. The problem does not occur with all scanners. There is no solution
9. If you open a PDF file in AOL 6.0 to 9.0, the file opens in a text editor. save the PDF file to your hard drive and open it in Adobe Reader.
10. Mac OS X v. 10.3 or later and Safari 1.2.2 or later are required to use Adobe Reader in a browser window.
11. Although Adobe has tested Adobe Reader 7.0.7 on future versions of Mac OS, those operating systems are not compatible with Adobe Reader as the final test was not completed when Adobe Reader 7.0.7 was released.
12. If you paste the character U + 3400 into the search field and perform a search, the search fails even if the character exists in the PDF document you are looking for. The same applies to U + 3500, U + 3600, and U + 3700. Type the character U + 3400 in the search field instead of pasting it.
13. If you install adobe acrobat elements 6.0 after installing the full version of Adobe Reader 7.0, you may encounter an error in acrobat elements when you try to convert a file to PDF asking if you want to run the installer in repair mode. If you click Yes, you will get the same error the next time you try to convert a file to PDF in Acrobat items. Install acrobat elements 6.0 before installing Adobe Reader 7.0.7 to ensure that both applications are installed in the same folder. (Acrobat Elements 6.0 does not allow you to specify the installation location.) Note that installing Adobe Reader 7.0.7 does not remove Adobe Reader 6.0, which is installed by Adobe Items in the same folder. This installation of Adobe Reader 6.0 (unlike the download version) does not interfere with the functionality of Adobe Reader 7.0.7.
