Menu "Document" -<None>

Post by Peter2 »

The menu "Document" starts with "Headers..." and "Watermarks", and the last entry is "<None>" with empty submenu. What is is good for?

Hi Peter,

That last entry is the "Launch" menu - if you have the Viewer or Adobe's Reader isntalled they should be listed there.

Best,

I have the Viewer 2.5 210 and no Adobe Reader, but no entry.

[Edit: sorry, NO Adobe ...)

Hi Peter,

That's strange. Did you install the editor before or after the Viewer and/or Acrobat?

Attached is an image of the same menu on my machine.

Best,
Stefan

At first I had "Viewer" (no Adobe, sorry for wrong posting above).

Now I made (without restart!)
- a "Repair-Setup" -> no Launch
- a deinstall and new-install -> no Launch

Hi Peter,

Can you try to reboot your PC then and let us know the result?

Hi Peter,

Hopefully you don't mind me jumping in here, Stefan has finished for the day.

Could you please provide me with the details about your OS and system? i.e. Version of Windows, 32 or 64-bit, Service pack, etc. All of this information can be found by going to the control panel and selecting System.

Cheers, let me know!

a) Besides the current problems I think the word "<None>" is a little confusing. Better something like "No other PDF-software" should be used.

b)
Win 7 Prof. 64 Bit SP1, German
Dell Precision M6700, 8 GB RAM

Hi Peter,

Thanks for getting back to me and sorry for the late reply, I had to check this over with the Dev. Team.

They've told me that, currently, the Viewer is only detected in this menu if it is set as Default - they will be adding the ability for this to be detected, regardless, in the next build.

For now, to make sure that the Viewer is made default, please either go to Edit --> Preferences --> File Associations and select the option there, or go to the Start Menu in Windows --> Default Programs and select it to be the default under ".pdf"

Let me know if that doesn't work!
