Acrobat error

I've tried to open several documents recently using Adobe Acrobat and gotten an error message. The message was something to the effect of Can't find ColorSpace Cs6. One document had text and photos. The text was there but the photos were blacked out. The other document was almost completely blacked out. Any idea what I should do?

 

AA reader or do you have the full version?

 

I believe it is Acrobat Reader.

 

Uninstall, reboot, reinstall, reboot...

Newest version of the Reader available here.

As usual, the answer to my problem is found on this great board. Installing the newest version of Acrobat Reader solved the problem. Thanks once again to all.

 

an unfortunate "bonus" of upgrading Acrobat Reader is the newer one tends to crash rather a lot if you try to open pdf files directly from the internet.

I went up from v3 to v5; v3 was beautifully stable, v5 "prangs the kite" almost every other time...

(this probably depends on your hardware, I've got a slow PC and a dialup)

solution is to right-click on the link, and save the pdf file somewhere on your computer; then open it locally from your own PC.

nothing wrong with the pdf file itself, more to do with the way AcroRd32 plugs into IE; I think it boils down to timing of something as it seems worse if Acrobat isn't already running => has to launch when the browser demands it.

There's a big push to upgrade to Acroread v5 as it can handle accessibility features which v3 couldn't.

that's progress

best wishes, HJ
