Oct 9, PM. Page content loaded. This may actually be an Adobe problem. I assume you're viewing the pdf in iOS Chrome. You select the Adobe application and it fails to download the document correctly. Is that correct? I use the GoodReader app, and this process still works for me. If you're using the normal send to button next to the URL bar, try touch and hold instead. You could also check for an Adobe update.
We seem to be talking at cross purposes. In iOS Chrome, I'm not aware of any option to save a pdf or other file. This allows Chrome to send the URL to other apps, which then import the file themselves. Is that the method you're using? Note that this is not possible for all pdfs, maybe because their owners want to block downloads. If you're using some other technique, please describe it. Yes, I'm using the Open In function--that's what I meant by save a pdf as I can have it available on the iPad in my local documents in Adobe to access without connectivity which I can annotate and highlight etc.
I tap on the pdf in the browser window to select the "open in", and select the option to copy to Adobe. I can only view the pdf in the web browsers. I've tried this with multiple pdfs from multiple sources from external websites that don't require logins and aren't encrypted and none of the pdfs work. And yes, all my software and apps are up to date. And, incidentally, I've used this method on my iPhone 5 for years to view and "save" pdfs in adobe locally on my phone so I can access them even in airplane mode etc.
If you're used to a computer, where you can just toss files around and open them with any application that works, you need to recognize that iOS isn't like that.
Each iOS app manages its own data as objects. So, when you try to open a pdf in Adobe, Chrome hands the URL to Adobe and it downloads the file to store inside itself.
I've just tested this process with both GoodReader and the Apple iBooks app, both of which work fine. And my pattern is similar to yours.
Could you try it and see if it works? You may need to reinstall Adobe, or it may not be updated for iOS I just installed Acrobat Reader from the app store, and transferred the file I referenced to it.
It displayed smoothly and is now stored in Acrobat. I strongly recommend that you reinstall Acrobat. I'm trying to help another user with a similar but not identical problem.
Since you downloaded the Acrobat app and it worked for you I'm wondering if the problem isn't specific to different iPad models.
I fthat's the case the best we can hope for is a workaround and the feedback link. Oct 9, PM in response to bobseufert In response to bobseufert. It may be device-dependent, but it seems such a basic mechanism. Here, we'll go over all of the issues that you may be experiencing, as well as how to fix them. Before you attempt more complicated solutions, try and reset Chrome.
It takes little to no time and it might fix your problems. Here is how you do it:. While resetting Chrome doesn't affect your bookmarks or saved passwords, it will remove all pinned tabs, browsing data, and cookies.
Also, this will disable all of your browser extensions, so you'll need to re-enable them. If this is the case, you might have a poor internet connection, or there is an incompatible third-party extension. Before changing Chrome's settings, check your internet connection.
To check for a faulty extension, switch to Incognito Mode. To open it, click the three dots placed in the top-right corner and select New incognito window. If you can view PDFs while using Incognito mode, the problem is caused by one of your extensions.
To find out which extension is causing you trouble, turn off all extensions and then enable them one by one. If you can't open PDFs even if you are using Incognito mode, hidden malware might be causing issues. Luckily, Chrome comes with a malware detection and removal tool for these cases. Opened PDFs might have odd-looking text, missing images, or even laggy scrolling. These problems might be caused by an outdated Chrome version. While Chrome updates itself automatically, you can start an update manually.
This page will outline how to make the browser download PDF files automatically, rather than open them in a new tab. To proceed, select your browser from the list below and follow the instructions. To change the name of a PDF file you want to download, right-click the download link and select Save As. However, downloading a PDF is still possible.
