Best Place to Purchase Dynamic PAID Stamp and Sequential Numbering Stamp?
I'm trying to find the best way to have a dynamic PAID stamp that I can input the date and method of payment, as well as a stamp to sequentialy number different paragraphs in a document (currently I have to insert a small text box with the # I want, then copy, paste, and edit that same text box for the next paragraph I want to number). Just downloaded the free trial of Acrobat XI Pro, and it has no better features to meet these need than the Acrobat X Standard I have been using. Yes, I know dynamic stamps can be created, but I would rather find a good place to download what I need or a good 3rd party software for stamps, for a reasonable price, and not spend the time and effort building something from scratch.
If someone knows the best way to go about this, will I need to upgrade from X Standard to XI Pro to execute these stamps?
Is there a sequential numbering stamp tool that will stamp numbers one after another with a left click rather than having to select the stamp icon each time?
Thank you in advance for your help,
Mark

Acrobat 9.0 Shared Review problem
Hello,
I upgraded to Acrobat 9.0 professional from 8.0 professional, and can no longer create a shared review. I did a complete uninstall of 8.0 prior to the 9.0 installation. I am running Windows XP Professional w/ Service Pack 3 on a Core2 Quad CPU @ 2.40 GHz using 3.25 GB RAM.
I have never had any issues with the shared review on Acrobat 8.0, but now just prior to completing the setup process for the review, I receive a dialog message stating "Status: Could not save the shared review-enabled PDF file". Options include: Retry (non-productive) and Cancel (which does work). "Cancel" terminates the process.
What leads up to this event is similar to the routine I followed under Acrobat 8.0.
1. Save pdf from FrameMaker.
2. Move pdf to publicly accessible folder on network.
3. Open pdf.
4. Select Comments > Send for Shared Review...
5. Select "Automatically collect comments on my own internal server".
6. Click Next.
7. Select "Network folder" radio button.
8. Click Browse to navigate to pdf location. Status confirms that "Shared folder location is valid".
9. Click Next.
10. Select "Send it automatically using Adobe Acrobat" radio button.
11. Select "As a link within the message".
12. Click Next.
13. Type a name for the server profile (e.g. "Test")
14. Click Next.
15. Click To and add addressee(s).
16. Click Send. "Create Shared Review" dialog box states "Status: Could not save the shared review-enabled PDF file".
17. Click Cancel.
I have searched for this message ("Status: Could not save the shared review-enabled PDF file") and only found a TechNote indicating that "...with Acrobat 9.0 you no longer need to Reader-enable a PDF before you send it for Shared Review; this is done automatically." I'm not doing this, so it appears to be unrelated to my problem.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Sorry for the long post and thanks for any help.

Replies erroneously showing previous entry.
Systems Info:
- Acrobat X Pro 10.1.6, all patches applied in order
- Acrobat uninstall and reinstall does not fix the issue
- Macintosh OS 10.7.x and 10.8.x
- All machines affected the same way
We are using Adobe Acrobat Shared Reviews for routing our internal documents fro proofing. When users reply to previous users comments, after they have entered 4 or 5 replies, the next reply that will show that it already has the text from the previous reply. However that is not the case, the text field is actually emtpy, but it looks like Acrobat was helping out and "pre-populated" the field with the previous entry. Users move on to the next reply without realizing that their last reply was empty. You do not know that the field is empty unless you click on the text field and then the erroneous "pre-populated" text disappears and shows the blank text field. Very odd behavior.
It seems to me to be a caching or screen redraw issue with Acrobat, but I cannot confirm that. I have also replicated the problem in Acrobat X1. I have tried to scour the internet for info on this but to no avail. Is anyone else having this issue and if so has anyone successfully solved the problem.
Enclosed is a link to a video we created showing the issue. Hopefuly it will help illustrate what I am trying to describe above.
Thanks,

How to Change Initiator
In Adobe X we use comment review process. There are some situations where the Original Initiator has moved to a different job (or is not available) and I would like to know how to allow someone else to change deadline or stop the review process.
I guess one workaround is to create a new review with another submitter and import all previous comments.
Another possibility is for the organization to create an identity for all submitters. This would mean that the identity would have to be changed by the end users a LOT of times.
I hope it is easier than that.
Thanks

Custom Stamp Names don't appear in Acrobat X Pro
First of all, I can't seem to find the appropriate forum for this question - please move or redirect me if you know of a better place!
I have created some custom stamps with customized names that worked fine in Acrobat 9 Pro. However, when setting them up in Acrobat X Pro, the names don't appear - only the thumbnail appears. Does anybody know what I may be doing wrong?
Thanks in advance.

Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.4.6 Sticky Note Icons are huge and can not resize
My coworker is having a problem with the size of the Sticky Note (comments) Icon. It is huge and we can not resize.
When you open the icon, it takes up the whole page. We can change the Font size, but the actual icon will not resize.
The same document opened up from someone else, the icon views normal. We all have Adobe Acrobat Pro V9.4.6. Any suggestions on a fix?
Thank You.

Shared review not working for Acrobat Reader
I can not believe have not been able to find an anwer to this, sorry if it has been asked before.
I am trying to setup shared review with clients running Acrobat Standard XI and Acrobat Reader XI, I am currently using a Sharepoint server for the review server if it matters.
When I send a shared review from Acrobat Standard XI to a user on Acrobat Reader XI, the user is unable to make shared review comments. The shared review will work when sent to other Standard or Pro XI users. Any ideas? I have been looking at this for sometime now, and know the user has full rights to the Sharepoint server. Is there some setting I am missing in Reader?
Thank you
Update:
I may be finding my own question, but really can not verify. Must you have Acrobat Pro for shared review to work with Reader? (I only have standard for pc)

Acrobat 9: comments at the *side* of the screen?
Is it possible to make the comment summary list appear at the side of the screen in Acrobat 9, as it does in Acrobat 10? Having them at the bottom takes up screen height that I need in order to enlarge the document's image size as much as possible.
Many thanks!

Annotations disappear across platforms
I have marked up some PDFs on my Asus Android based tablet with the freehand tool, but when I open them in Reader XI on my Windows 7 based computer, the markings have disappeared. Is it possible to transfer them across these platforms?
If it matters, these are PDFs that are basically image files (from databases of historical documents), not something converted from a text file.

Disable auto check-in with SharePoint
Hi all,
I apologize if this isn't in the right place; I couldn't find an obvious location for Adobe / SharePoint integration questions.
Today one of my users complained that Adobe Reader X has suddenly started behaving differently in how it integrates with SharePoint (we're using 2007). When she receives an email with a PDF attached, she opens it in Reader and saves it to SharePoint. She then wants to review the document and possibly make comments, which again should be saved into SharePoint. At the end of the review she'll check the document in.
Today, when she did the initial save, Adobe automatically checked the document into SharePoint. She tried this several times with different documents, and had the same behavior.
Is this a new function? Is there a way to disable it so my user can save the document in SharePoint without checking it in?
Thanks,
Kristin

Possible to disable SharePoint check-in/out prompt without disabling all SharePoint integration
Hello,
While the article "What's New in Acrobat X, Version 10.1" (http://blogs.adobe.com/pdfitmatters/2011/06/whats-new-in-acrobat-x-ver sion-10-1.html) claims as a new feature the ability to disable the SharePoint check-in/check-out prompt, I cannot find any options for this in the Acrobat X 10.1 application, and furthermore, in response to a user question on this topic, instructions are given to edit a registry key to disable the SharePoint integration features, as below:
"Create a new key “cSharePoint” at “HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Adobe\(product name)\(version)\FeatureLockDown”
In this key, create a new DWORD Value “bDisableSharePointFeatures”
Set its value to 1"
My question is: Is it possible to disable the SharePoint check-in/check-out prompt only, as suggested by the above article, without disabling all of the SharePoint integration features (as the registry edit would do)?
Many Thanks

Where are text annotation tools?
I'm using Reader 10 to edit a PDF that is enabled for commenting. The Adobe Help shows that there are 10 tools under "Annotations," but my instance shows only 2 (sticky note and highlighter). I can't find a way to add or delete text. How do I find those other text-editing tools?

Pen annotation in Acrobat X leads to jagged initial stroke
I'd like to use the freeform drawing tool to mark up PDFs on my tablet, but I'm having a problem with drawing accuracy. For some reason Acrobat takes a split second to recognize that the user is drawing after putting the pen down. For example, rapidly drawing a large circle will produce a straight line from the initial contact point to a point that is something like 20 percent along the circle outline. This makes drawing and writing pretty much impossible.
Is there a setting that I can toggle to improve accuracy / response time? For reference, the Evermap Autoink add-in produces smooth and pressure sensitive annotations within Acrobat, so it's not a problem with my machine.
Alternatives exist, but are not cheap or have issues:
- iAnnotate PDF: near perfect but turns annotations into bitmaps
- PDF Revu is rather expensive
- AutoInk works, but does not allow the user to define custom pens beyond customizing the included 3 or 4 pens
System:
- Acrobat X (10.1.2)
- Win7 X64 Ultimate
- Lenovo X220 tablet, core i7, pen + touch

Acrobat X Shapes/Text Boxes
Hello,
In my old verison of Standard (7?), I could add shapes or text boxes. I used shapes to cover up sections of a PDF. I would then change the border and background colour. In some cases I would also add text boxes and do the same thing formatting.
Questions:
- How do I add different shapes (no text box)
- I found how to add a text box but my properties to do not give me font, color, border, bg options. How can do this?
Thanks

Acrobat X Highlight Text Tool Problem
I am having trouble using the highlighter in Acrobat X. When one highlights text, the text is backlit with the color of the highlighter...at least that's how highlighting is supposed to work (and how it worked in Acrobat 9.x and how it works in Microsoft Word). My experience thus far is that when I hightlight text in Acrobat X, the highlight color is painted OVER the text, completely covering it so it can not be seen. Changing the opacity of the highlighter mere lets a very dim semblance of text show. Below is an example of text highlighted in Acrobat X using the highlight tool, and for comparison, the same text hightlighted in Microsoft Word. In Acrobat the text is completely covered with the highlight color (and reducing the opacity of the highlighter doesn't solve the problem because the text is barely viewable until highlighter opacity is set to near ZERO).
I would like to know how to get the highlighter to behave correctly (as it did in Acrobat 9.x and as it does in Word).

Shared Review cannot resolve email addresses through Outlook
I am finding references to the issue I am having that goes back a couple years and seems to be tied to a change to Acrobat between versions 8 & 9, I am flummoxed though that there isn't a solution listed for any of the forum posts I've found. We are using Acrobat Pro & Standard X. When I create a shared review via Email or using a SharePoint workspace, I am unable to succesfully add users to the review process.
A few users always work and most others result in multiple contact selector dialog boxes and a final message:
"Microsoft Outlook does not recognize "/o=..."
If this is a known issue how can there not be a work around or fix for this? It's a great feature, but I can't ask our users to use this shared review process if I also have to tell them to just keep trying to enter the reviewer email - it might work eventually.
Suggestions?
