Change View in Browser Setting

Aug 16, 2012 3:11 PM

I have packaged Reader 10 that we deployed to our users with it set to view PDFs in Reader.  There is a group of people in this one department now that want it set to view in browser.  I tried setting it in the registry to integrate in the browser which works fine for exisiting users.  The problem is when a new user logins to a machine those settings are ignored and it defaults to view in Reader and not browser.

 

Is there any way I can change this?  My only solution so far is to create a new package with it set to view in Browser and to maintain 2 packages...

    Most preferences are per user and stored in HKCU. Try setting HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Adobe\(product name)\(version)\FeatureLockdown\bBrowserIntegration as described in the Preference Reference.

    I have an website and a forum ( http://www.13tribos.com.br/forum ) with some pdf files for download. There are some people that are having trouble because the configuration in their browers that opens the documento itself with adobe plugin. Why I can solve tris issue because people needs to download the pdf files to read later ? I´m wondering in compress file, but is not a good solution. Is an another option to the pdf that lets bypass open and save the file ?

    Thanks you attention

    Hi,

     

    I don't completely understand the problem, but if a PDF opens in a browser it is already downloaded. The user only has to save the file to the desktop.
