Solution for IE9 can not download Adobe PDF files

IE9 is not downloading Adobe PDF files

Adobe Reader 10.1.4 was installed on my Windows 7 machine which uses IE9 as the default browser on August 17, 2012.

Since that time I have had a BIG problem downloading 20-25 Meg PDF files. I frequently get messages stating that network errors occurred, and I have to restart the download. If no network errors occur, then it takes about 20 minutes for a 20 Meg file to download. This is unacceptable because my measured download speed averages about 12 Mbps.

When I use Google Chrome to download the 20-25 Meg PDF files, it takes considerably less than one minute.

It boggles my mind that Adobe and Microsoft would release products that obviously don't work. I'm appealing to both of you to fix these problems just in case Google Chrome stops working too.

The last version of Adobe Reader that worked satisfactorily was 9.1.2

Adobe Reader 9.5 did not work either

PLEASE NOTE that using Internet Options/Advanced option and deselecting "Do not save encrypted pages to disk" DID NOT RESOLVE THE PROBLEM.

Can you try following?

1.Open and run adobe reader first
2.Click on "Edit" on the toolbar.
3.Select "Preferences" at the bottom of the Edit list.
4.Select "Internet" in the list of features on the left-side of the Preferences window.
5.Uncheck "Display PDF in browser".

The next is a question about pdf viewer, could you solve this problem?

"It is strange that such a huge success as Google would not consider the implications of not conforming to a web standard for PDF open URL strings.

I use a huge amount of PDF's for my companies information on the web, and basically I have to tell our users to turn off Google Chrome's PDF viewer so that they can view the information in a suitable fashion. Otherwise the file opens in Full screen mode or zoomed to 135%, If they are going to reinvent the wheel, let's go ahead and make it ROUND!"

Question:Can't find any library to create pdf files on Android.

We know that android includes a set of core libraries that provides most of the functionality available in the core libraries of the Java programming language." Unfortuantely, it seems that most of these pdf libraries uses awt or swing or other libraries which are not supported.

Now adobe has just announced the availability of its PDF creator application for Android devices, CreatePDF. However, the ability to create PDF files directly on an Android device doesn't come cheap at all, as the company priced the application at $9.99.

This is a good news for Android users, but I found that the Adobe Reader for Android does not have the Flash Player runtime. What's a pity.
